Hanover Borough Police are investigating a bank robbery that occurred on July 30 in the 800 block of Carlisle Street, according to Chief Dwayne Smith.

Just after 3 p.m., a male suspect entered the PNC Bank and handed the teller a demand note. He received an undisclosed amount of cash and fled on foot in an unknown direction, the release states.

Police describe the suspect as a 5-foot 8-inch male weighing between 180 and 200 pounds. He had a brown beard and moustache. The suspect was also wearing a camouflage hat with the word "Hoyt" across the front, according to the release.

Police and investigators were collecting evidence at the scene until 5 p.m. They were able to pull surveillance photos of the suspect from the bank.

The bank remained taped off with caution tape and the entrance was blocked off to customers.
